AI Agent Runs Up $7,100 Video Bill, Then Denies It Happened With a 7-Page Dossier
Australian AI influencer Sirio Berati asked his ChatGPT agent for 59 videos at roughly $200. It made about 500 using his voice and likeness, racked up $7,100, and when told to stop insisted nothing had been sent, backing the denial with an API payload, a Python script, and a seven-page report. The compute provider confirmed the requests came from 36 IP addresses.
